    @NOWHelpTeam awful service from you! You've messed me about for two weeks getting an engineer out to my #broadband and you still can't come for another 2 weeks despite the fact I'm a critical worker with no connection #cancelled and gone back to @virginmedia #usless

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Hi John, I did that yesterday & the result was Virgin booked an engineer to attend Monday. However you texted this morning saying due to issues you had to cancel the Engineers visit that was booked for Monday. No further update or comms were given. What do we do? PLEASE HELP

  • markroberts0007 Mark Roberts (@markroberts0007) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia hi there, we’ve had internet issues since we went to sleep last night. We live in m30. There is a flashing green light on the box, I’ve been on your website to try and reset the box etc. Have you any idea what’s going on?

  • SiManM20 Simon Manning (@SiManM20) reported from Manchester, England

    Anyone else on @virginmedia getting that weekly thing when their internet collapses again on a Sunday night? I’ve asked them repeatedly and they deny it but it’s a weekly outage like clockwork #VMSundayOutage

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Yes. I've checked the service status yesterday and twice today. I have screenshoted the result in my earlier tweet on this thread. What do I do now?

  • rickcharlesuk Rick Charles Media Services (@rickcharlesuk) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia fastest bb worst ping 💪🏻

  • leehow2 Lee Howarth (@leehow2) reported from Urmston, England

  • MJ_Humphries Martin Humphries (@MJ_Humphries) reported from Wilmslow, England

    @virginmedia Numerous times, and they are simply obstructive and unwilling to sort the problem. I'm appalled by the service quality.

  • andy4321 Andy Collier (@andy4321) reported from Stockport, England

    I'd never switch broadband to @virginmedia after hearing about their unfair charges on @joelycett #virginmedia

    @virginmedia I'm not typing out everything, having repeated myself for the last four months. See a/c 594717402 (area ref 20) for details. Customer service promised to call 30 mins after our latest conversation today. No call, 7 hours and counting. Just send the cheques!

  • suzyk2002 Eileen Roberts (@suzyk2002) reported from Rochdale, England

    @virginmedia I pity the poor engineers who have to sort that mess out 😢

  • maximuslid Norbert Lad. (@maximuslid) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia I was advised everytime that the original agreement was correct in the notes and the bill would be amended. Each time it comes through on email it is wrong. And the credit has not been authorised. I'm paying £38 excess in first month as no credit applied. Help.

  • JiriKPinnock J K P (@JiriKPinnock) reported from Manchester, England

    @virginmedia Does your customer service normally phoning at this time after 8pm from 08000521251?? Asking to verify my account??

  • lucindaduffy12 Lucinda Duffy (@lucindaduffy12) reported from Newton-le-Willows, England

    @virginmedia Thanks Anthony did arrive but very late and well after our 'slot' - he was under the impression customer services would have let us know? Such a shame to have had to complain, as he was so efficient and sorted things for us. Communication is key though!

  • Fatbelly57 Fatbelly 🇪🇺 💙💛 (@Fatbelly57) reported from Warrington, England

    @virginmedia Done that and it says no known issues. Why have you cancelled our engineer visit tomorrow. Please help

  • maximuslid Norbert Lad. (@maximuslid) reported from Knutsford, England

    @virginmedia Hi, John sorted the problem, but sky sports HD is still NOT showing. It should be on BOTH boxes. Please fix ASAP.

  • johncoxonmedia John E. Coxon (@johncoxonmedia) reported from Salford, England

    @virginmedia Hi. Have reported to you here that independent engineer confirmed my connection is OK but hub 3 is faulty & needs replacing. You advised phone 150 again to book engineer. Your system does not enable that just offers fault trouble shoot txt message.

  • chrissy__w Chrissie (@chrissy__w) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia when your marketing team ring you and tell you that you have internet issues, advised I didn’t have any issues and the rude call handler just hung up. Rang from 01484313420. Not the best reflection for the company is it.

  • SarahBeePhotos Sarah Bee Photography (@SarahBeePhotos) reported from Ashton-under-Lyne, England

    @virginmedia Terrible as always, you cannot deliver in this area, you’ve promised for a few years now but nothing changes, I’ve had to put us on unlimited data on the phones as the WiFi is not fit for purpose, I am on the highest speed apparently… shocking

    @virginmedia @megbmorley Hi where’s the status page? I had no wifi for 2 hours yesterday and it’s been down for 30 mins again today

  • eeddiieebb G4MERDADx (@eeddiieebb) reported

    @virginmedia But the advisor I just spoke to said there is an outage in the AREA???? Make it make sense atleast. Absolutely abysmal service

  • ClementsJ Jamie (@ClementsJ) reported

    @virginmedia Hi, second day running intermittent internet, out for hours at a time. Check service status and it keeps saying everything is fine. How do I report the problem? #virginmediadown

  • Jeegar_S Jeegar (@Jeegar_S) reported

    @virginmedia Sorry guys, but who do I speak to about compensation for a degraded service, its been almost 2 weeks of this with no update of a fix. Not to mention the latest firmware for your hub 3 has now completely screwed over the wifi network

  • tonbriel iBriel (@tonbriel) reported

    @VirginMediaNews Virgin media is a proper joke. When I asked to cancel my contract on the grounds of poor service guess what, they’re asking for termination fee of £240. I was tossed to 5 different reps who could not fathom any solution to the problem. That’s how bad they’re

  • smashbangwallop Smash bang wallop (@smashbangwallop) reported

    @virginmedia No, this is an ongoing issue seems to be particularly bad in SE19

  • nanipals Dr. Renuka Mudunuri (@nanipals) reported

    @virginmedia You are the worst internet provider in the country. Your technical support guy: ifran told us that VirginMedia don’t support VPN and you shouldn’t use VPN for work from home. Why did not you mention this in the contract

  • lisalouann Lisa Martin 🤍🖤 (@lisalouann) reported

    @virginmedia 1) After being on the phone for over an hour explaining our issue of no WIFI upstairs, Tivo box not working properly and not able to view Prime or On Demand Live Events we’ve purchased, the polite Virgin rep needed to get authority from a Floor Manager to book

  • BoingUK Scott 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 (@BoingUK) reported

    Customer service @virginmedia is proper shocking, bad decision to switch over to them #poorservice #allaboutthemoney

  • StuartAParker Stoo Parker (@StuartAParker) reported

    @vmbusinesshelp @vmbusiness OK, I’ll play the game again. I’ll report back here with how well they did resolving the issue.
